Have you ever wondered why, following 9/11, world
leaders, including President George W. Bush, were so
quick to say that the three major world
religions-Christianity, Islam, and Judaism-all worship
the same God? Christians were especially vocal in
espousing a tolerant worldview toward Muslims, stating
that Allah and Jehovah God were the same deity,
ostensibly to avert violence directed against Muslims.
Having studied the major world religions, Dr. Michael J.
Oldham simply could not accept the premise that
Christians could believe that the God of the Bible could
be the same God as the Qur'an's Allah. This fascinating
read takes an in-depth look at each religion's
descriptions of God, providing clear support with verses
from the Bible and the Qur'an. Dr. Michael J. Oldham
provides readers with a comprehensive study of Allah and
Elohim, what they claim to be, what their followers
believe, and the message of each. Allah and Elohim is
thoroughly researched and its conclusions are drawn from
the works of many Christian and Muslim scholars. While
founded on much research, this book is easily read, and
no matter your religion, you will find the book's
conclusions compelling. This book outlines the truths
about Islam and Christianity and clarifies the major
attributes of each God and why they do not correspond.
Ground yourself in a thorough understanding of Allah and
Elohim so you can competently appreciate the tenets of
each.
